Description

The PolarWave VORTEX Line 29 mm is the smallest block in the VORTEX range: a single-piece side-cheek block that carries a 700 kg working load at just 26 g. It works on mainsheet systems, mast base turning points and vangs on performance keelboats, and it is a natural fit for a dinghy vang, where low friction and low weight count most.

Body and sheave are both made from marine-grade anodised aluminium, so the block stays stiff under load and holds up in salt water. Inside runs PolarWave's own bearing system, with specially shaped PEEK roller bearings that keep friction low when the block is loaded hard, including from the side.

A stainless steel rivet core, also developed in-house by PolarWave, takes it to a 2 tonne breaking load. Where you would normally need a bigger, heavier block to handle that kind of load, the 29 mm does it in a fraction of the space.

Why Choose PolarWave

PolarWave designs and builds lightweight, high-performance sailing hardware in Slovenia. The VORTEX Line takes that approach from dinghy blocks up to big boat loads. Made in Europe.
